K.H. Hödicke

Hödicke is primarily known as a painter and is considered a pioneer of German neo-expressionism. During his stay in the U.S. in the late 1960s, he began to explore the technical possibilities of film and video, making a series of short films. Tartaruga, AD 1 – Im Rücklauf, AD 2 – In Advance of the Broken Leg, La faccia del mondo, Zähne, and Tivoli are a series of brief experimental and performative videos that reveal links to Fluxus and the happening.
